New coins 

The new portrait design has been published. It is not clear when they will be used on day to day coinage. what will the King's portrait look like on the Commonwealth coins?

It is interesting the legend has the English version of his name Charles. The name Elizabeth was used on her coins but George V, VI and Edward VIII all used the Latin versions. Victoria is the same in both languages. Both kings Charles I and Charles II used Carolus.
